Remember Jesus Christ, (A)risen from the dead, (B)descendant of David, (C)according to my gospel, [a]for which I (D)suffer hardship even to (E)imprisonment as a (F)criminal; but (G)the word of God (H)is not imprisoned. 10 For this reason (I)I endure all things for (J)the sake of [b]those who are chosen, (K)so that they also may obtain the (L)salvation which is in (M)Christ Jesus and with it (N)eternal glory. 11 (O)The statement is trustworthy:

For (P)if we died with Him, we will also live with Him;
12 If we endure, (Q)we will also reign with Him;
If we [c](R)deny Him, He will also deny us;
13 If we are faithless, (S)He remains faithful, for (T)He cannot deny Himself.

An Unashamed Worker

14 Remind them of these things, and solemnly (U)exhort them in the presence of God not to (V)dispute about words, which is useless and leads to the ruin of the listeners.
